Test builds of the linux-firmware-raspi package are now available from
https://launchpad.net/~waveform/+archive/ubuntu/firmware -- any
interested parties are welcome to test. Particularly interested in any
upgrade failures (there are a lot of diversions that need re-pointing
from linux-firmware-raspi2 to linux-firmware-raspi).

Title:
  Rename to linux-firmware-raspi

Status in linux-firmware-raspi2 package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in pi-bluetooth package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The corresponding kernel package (linux-raspi) was already renamed
  away from linux-raspi2; the same should happen for this firmware
  package.

  Several suggestions have been made of how this should be accomplished,
  including adding it as a binary package to the linux-firmware source
  package. However, in the course of figuring out how to accomplish this
  move (which is complicated by the fact the package uses diversions,
  and will probably always need to), I think the simplest move at the
  moment is simply to introduce a new linux-firmware-raspi source
  package derived from this one, and follow the usual transitional
  package route of https://wiki.debian.org/RenamingPackages
